ATBN as part of a consortium of partners, hosted the Coalition for Digital Equality (CODE) Forum, an online event which brought together digital stakeholders from Ghana, Uganda, the UK and across the globe to share ideas about how the African digital gender divide can be addressed.
In the articles linked below we highlight some of the key insights that emerged from the cross-sectoral panel discussions.
- ‘Accelerating gender-lens investment in Africa’ panel discussion featuring Carolyn Kirabo (M-Kyla Ventures), Kenneth Legesi (Ortus Africa), Josie Middleton (IFC) and Amma Sefa-Dedeh Lartey (Social Enterprise Ghana).
- ‘Re-thinking existing models: Addressing gender barriers to digital skills training and entrepreneurship support‘ with Favour Nma Ozichukwu (iSpace), Gideon Brefo (HapaSpace) and Maryanne Karamagi (SilverBolt)
- “Bridging the digital gender divide — Insights from academia”, moderated by Dr Winfred Onyas (University of Leicester/Principal Investigator, CODE), convened three academic experts: Dr Sheena Lovia Boateng (University of Ghana), Dr Rebecca Namatovu-Dawa (Copenhagen Business School) and Dr Lilia Giugni (Cambridge University/Gender Consultant, CODE)
